About this property

A stylish retreat in Mount Pleasant, one of DC's most walkable neighborhoods. Two bedrooms plus a sofa bed sleep six, with two full baths - plus the city's rarest luxury: your own private off-street parking. Walk to Metro, cafes & Zoo.

  • Welcome to The Irving - a beautifully designed garden apartment on a leafy Mount Pleasant street, in one of DC's most beloved, walkable neighborhoods. Inside: warm navy-and-oak interiors, a full chef's kitchen, and two bedrooms plus a living-room sofa bed that sleep six - ideal for a family or two couples. Best of all: your own dedicated private off-street parking (a true DC rarity), an 8-minute stroll to the Metro, and celebrated cafes, Rock Creek Park, and the Zoo just around the corner.

    Our family lives in the home upstairs, so we're always just a text away with a local tip or anything you need - while your entrance, your space, and your stay remain completely private.

    Mount Pleasant is the DC neighborhood locals hope you won't discover - tree-lined streets, a lively Saturday farmers market, and a main street full of independent gems, all right around the corner:

    - Elle - Bib Gourmand bakery & cafe for morning coffee and pastries
    - Purple Patch - DC's beloved Filipino kitchen
    - Martha Dear - award-winning sourdough pizza
    - Bar Del Monte - a romantic little Italian wine bar
    - La Tejana - breakfast tacos by day, cocktails by night

    Step out to miles of trails in Rock Creek Park right at your doorstep, spend an afternoon at the free Smithsonian National Zoo, or wander south into buzzing Adams Morgan. When you're ready for the monuments, the Metro has you downtown in minutes.

    Pull straight into your own dedicated, private off-street parking space - no permits, no meters, no circling the block. In a city where parking is famously precious, this is one of The Irving's most prized perks. From your spot, it's a few steps down to your private entrance and keyless smart-lock door. The entire apartment is yours.

    The Irving is the garden level of a classic Mount Pleasant rowhouse, thoughtfully designed to feel like a boutique hideaway - warm navy walls, oak furniture, and brass accents throughout.

    Living & dining: An inviting open-plan living room with a plush navy sofa that converts to a queen sofa bed, a smart TV, and a dining table for four - perfect for morning coffee or a home-cooked dinner in.

    Kitchen: A full chef's kitchen with stainless appliances, subway-tile backsplash, coffee maker, and everything you need to actually cook - not just reheat.

    Sleeps six, comfortably - ideal for a family or two couples:
    - Primary suite: a king bed and its own private ensuite bath
    - Second bedroom: a queen bed
    - Living room: a roomy queen sofa bed
    A king bedroom and a queen bedroom PLUS the sofa bed give you real flexibility, and two full bathrooms mean no one waits in line.

    The details that matter: in-unit washer & dryer, fast Wi-Fi and a comfortable workspace, keyless smart-lock entry, central heating & A/C, and fresh linens and towels.

    - Columbia Heights Metro (Green/Yellow lines) is an easy 8-minute walk - putting the monuments, downtown, the convention center, and Reagan National Airport within quick reach.
    - Endlessly walkable and bike-friendly, with Capital Bikeshare nearby.
    - Bringing a car? Your own dedicated off-street parking space is waiting - a rare luxury in this city.

    Our family lives upstairs, so this is a shared building - the everyday sounds of family life can travel between floors, in both directions. To keep you comfortable, we provide a sound machine and complimentary earplugs in each bedroom. Most guests never give it a second thought, and we're always a message away.

    House rules: No parties or events. No smoking. No pets, please (family allergies). Quiet hours after 10 pm out of respect for our neighbors.
